Many computer chips are manufactured from silicon, which occurs in nature as SiO2. When SiO2 is heated to melting, it reacts with solid carbon to form liquid silicon and carbon monoxide gas. In an industrial preparation of silicon, 155.2 kg of SiO2 is allowed to react with 77.5 kg of carbon to produce 66.2 kg of silicon. Determine the theoretical yield and percent yield for the reaction.

Explain the term "limiting reactant". What is an ionic equation? Explain the meaning of "the reaction goes to less than 100% completion".
One important factor in any chemical synthesis is the actual quantity of desired product obtained compared to the theoretical amount predicted on the basis of the stoichiometry of the reaction. The ratio of the mass of product obtained to the theoretical quantity, expressed as a percentage, is referred to as the "percent yield" or more simply the "yield". For example: if we react HCl with excess NaOH one of the products will be NaCl. If we assume that all of the Cl in HCl ends up as NaCl we know that each mole of HCl consumed should produce a mole of NaCl product. Suppose that in a particular reaction 11.7 grams of HCl (36.5 g/mol) react with excess NaOH and 17.5 grams of NaCl (58.5 g/mol) are isolated from the reaction mixture by crystallization. What is the percent yield of NaCl in the experiement?

In a certain experiment two solutions are prepared and mixed. Solution 1 is prepared by dissolving 5.00 g of KNO3 and 5.00 g of BaCl2 in enough water to make a homogeneous solution. Solution 2 is prepared by dissolving 5.00 g of AgNO3 in enough water to make a homogeneous solution. A white color precipitate is formed upon mixing the two solutions. Identify the formula of the product and calculate the theoretical yield in grams.
